척추 측만증(scoliosis)란 그리스어의 굽었다는 뜻의 skolios에서 유래한 말로 척추가 옆으로 굽고 휘어지는 병이다. Scoliosis is a term derived from the Greek skolios, which means "curved," which means that the spine bends and flexes sideways.
척추를 앞이나 뒤에서 볼 때, 머리와 다리가 일직선을 이루어야 하는데 측면으로 휘어진(측만) 상태인 것이 척추측만증이다. When looking at the spine from the front or back, the head and legs should be in a straight line, but the side is curved (side only) scoliosis.
이는 다양한 원인에 의해 발생하는데 자세의 이상이나 통증에 의해 발생하면서 척추의 구조에는 변화가 없는 측만증을 기능성 척추측만증, 척추의 구조자체에 변화가 발생하는 측만증을 구조성 척추측만증이라 한다. This is caused by a variety of causes, such as scoliosis that is caused by abnormal posture or pain, but does not change the structure of the spine functional scoliosis, scoliosis that changes in the structure itself of the spine is called structural scoliosis.
이러한 구조성 척추측만증은 원인을 알 수 없는 경우가 많고 점차 악화되어 심, 폐기능의 저하를 유발할 수도 있다.Structural scoliosis is often unknown and may worsen, leading to deterioration of heart and lung function.
척추측만증의 치료를 위한 방법으로는 보조기에 의한 치료방법과 수술에 의한 치료방법 등이 있으며, 측만증의 각도가 20 ~ 40도 정도인 경우에는 일반적으로 보조기에 의한 치료방법을 사용한다. As a method for the treatment of scoliosis, there is a treatment method by a brace and a treatment method by surgery, etc. When the angle of scoliosis is about 20 to 40 degrees, a treatment method by a brace is generally used.
보조기는 목까지 올라오는 밀워키 보조기, 겨드랑이 아래까지 오는 흉요추 보조기 등이 있다.Orthosis includes Milwaukee braces that go up to the neck and thoracolumbar braces that go under the armpits.

이하의 도 1은 본 발명의 블럭도이며, 도 2는 척추 측만증 환자의 척추 상태도이며, 도 3은 본 발명의 착용 상태도이다.1 is a block diagram of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a state diagram of the spine of a patient with scoliosis, and FIG. 3 is a state diagram of wearing of the present invention.
도면에 도시된 바와 같이 본 발명은 척추 측만증 보정조끼에 관한 것으로서, 상단 지지점(10-1), 중단 가압점(10-2), 하단 지지점(10-3)에 형성시킨 압력센서(10)와 제어부(20)와 블루투스 모듈(200)과 스마트폰(30)으로 구성된다.As shown in the drawings, the present invention relates to a scoliosis correction vest, and includes a pressure sensor 10 formed at an upper support point 10-1, a suspension pressure point 10-2, and a lower support point 10-3. Consists of the controller 20, the Bluetooth module 200 and the smart phone (30).
상기 척추 측만증 보정조끼는 척추 측만증 치료를 위하여 도 2에 도시된 바와 같이 휘어진 척추를 가압하는 장치가 내장된 조끼이다.The scoliosis correction vest is a vest with a built-in device for pressing the curved spine as shown in Figure 2 for the treatment of scoliosis.
척추 측만 보정을 위한 압력은 도 2에서 보여지는 바와 같이 휘어진 척추의 상하에 지지점을 형성시키고 휘어진 척추부에 가압점을 형성시켜 척추가 다시 바르게 보정되도록 한다.Pressure for scoliosis correction is to form a support point on the upper and lower sides of the curved spine as shown in Figure 2 and to form a pressure point on the curved spine so that the spine is corrected again.
본 발명에서 상기 상단 지지점(10-1)과 하단 지지점(10-3)은 도 3에서 보여지는 바와 같이 상기 가압점을 지지하기 위한 압력부분을 의미하며, 상기 중단 가압점(10-2)은 척추 보정을 위하여 척추가 휘어진 부분에 가해지는 압력부분을 의미한다.In the present invention, the upper support point (10-1) and the lower support point (10-3) means a pressure portion for supporting the pressing point as shown in Figure 3, the stop pressing point (10-2) It means the pressure part applied to the curved part of the spine for the correction of the spine.
본 발명은 상기 상단 지지점(10-1)과 중단 지지점(), 하단 지지점(10-3)에 압력센서를 형성시켜, 척추 측만 보정을 위하여 가해지는 압력의 변화를 계측 관찰하고 기록되게 하는 장치이다.The present invention is a device for forming a pressure sensor on the upper support point (10-1), the stop support point (10), the lower support point (10-3) to measure and observe the changes in the pressure applied to correct the spine side only and to record .
즉, 척추 측만증 보정보끼를 착용한 환자는 시간에 따라 척추 측만증이 서서히 보정되어짐에 따라 가해지는 압력에도 변화가 생긴다.In other words, the patient wearing the scoliosis gait has a change in the pressure applied as the scoliosis is gradually corrected over time.
따라서, 가해지는 압력의 변화를 관찰하면 환자의 증세 호전 상태를 알 수 있으며, 환자는 자신의 호전 상태를 인지할 수 있으면서 의사는 보정 효과를 증가시키기 위한 압력 변화량을 알 수 있다.Therefore, by monitoring the change in pressure applied, the patient's condition of improvement can be known, and the patient can recognize the state of his / her improvement while the doctor can know the amount of pressure change to increase the correction effect.
한편, 환자는 상기 척추 측만증 보정조끼를 입고 일상 생활을 하므로 치료를 위하여 설정된 자세에서 가압되는 압력과 일상 생활 중 측정되는 압력이 다르게 나타날 수 있다.On the other hand, the patient wears the scoliosis correction vest so that the daily life may be different from the pressure measured in the posture set for treatment and the pressure measured in the daily life.
본 발명에서는 이를 보정하기 위하여 상기 압력센서(10)를 패드형 압력센서로 형성시켜 압력점에 대하여 넓은 분포로 압력값을 측정하여, 사용자 활동에 의한 압력 오차가 보정될 수 있게 한다.In the present invention, in order to correct this, the pressure sensor 10 is formed as a pad type pressure sensor to measure the pressure value in a wide distribution with respect to the pressure point, so that the pressure error due to user activity can be corrected.
즉, 넓은 면적의 압력 평균값을 계측하는 등의 방법으로 환자의 생활 동작에 의한 압력 오차가 최대한 보정되도록 한다.That is, the pressure error due to the living operation of the patient is corrected as much as possible by measuring a pressure average value of a large area.
본 발명의 제어부(20)는 도 3에 도시된 바와 같이 상기 상단 지지점(10-1), 중단 가압점(10-2), 하단 지지점(10-3)에 형성된 압력센서의 정보를 입력받아 이를 기록, 연산처리하는 회로부이다.The control unit 20 of the present invention receives the information of the pressure sensor formed in the upper support point (10-1), the stop pressing point (10-2), the lower support point (10-3) as shown in FIG. It is a circuit section for recording and arithmetic processing.
상기 제어부(20)에는 압력의 변화에 따른 호전상태를 미리 메모리하여 이를 디스플레이를 통하여 환자나 의사에게 전달할 수 있게 하는 것이 바람직하다.The control unit 20 may be configured to memorize a state of improvement in response to a change in pressure in advance so that it can be transmitted to a patient or a doctor through a display.
또한, 현재 압력에 대한 호전량을 연산하여 다음 단계의 가압량을 출력시켜 환자 치료에 자동 진행될 수 있게 한다.In addition, the amount of improvement for the current pressure is calculated to output the amount of pressurization in the next step so that the patient can automatically proceed to the treatment.
본 발명의 블루투스 모듈(200)은 상기 제어부(20)에 포함되어 상기 제어부(20)에서 연산된 데이터를 무선 전송시키는 무선통신 모듈이다.The Bluetooth module 200 of the present invention is a wireless communication module included in the control unit 20 to wirelessly transmit data calculated by the control unit 20.
상기 블루투스 모듈(200)을 이용하여 환자의 스마트폰(30)으로 측정된 압력값 또는 상기 제어부(20)에서 연산된 정보량을 전송 출력한다.The Bluetooth module 200 transmits and outputs the pressure value measured by the patient's smart phone 30 or the amount of information calculated by the controller 20.
상기 스마트폰(30)에는 미리 무선 전송되는 데이터를 입력받아 이를 해석 연산하고 저장하여 출력시키는 앱을 설치하여 둔다.The smart phone 30 is installed by receiving an app to receive the data transmitted in advance wirelessly, interpret it, store and output it.
상기 앱에는 의사의 스마트폰(10-1)과 연결되는 정보교환 수단을 구비하여 의사가 원격지에서도 환자의 호전 상태를 체크할 수 있게 하며, 환자가 내방한 경우에 압력 보정량을 즉시 인지할 수 있게 한다.The app is equipped with information exchange means connected to the doctor's smartphone (10-1) so that the doctor can check the patient's improvement even from a remote location, so that the patient can immediately recognize the amount of pressure correction when visiting do.
한편, 본 발명과 같이 스마트폰을 사용하면 사용자는 언제든지 자신을 가압하는 압력에 대한 정보를 알 수 있으므로, 이를 이용하여 정상적인 착용 여부를 항상 모티터링하여 사용자가 직접 이를 교정할 수 있다.On the other hand, when using a smart phone as in the present invention, the user can know the information about the pressure to press the self at any time, by using this to always monitor whether or not normal wear can be corrected by the user directly.
이는 스마트폰을 이용함으로써 종래기술과 큰 차이를 가지는 특징적인 부분으로서, 보정을 위한 가압시 압력센서의 유효 인정 범위를 100 ~ 200 파스칼 범위로 설정시켰다고 가정하면, 착용시 뒤틀어짐 등이 발생되면 100파스칼 이하의 값이 측정되어 스마트폰으로 보고되었을 때, 착용불량을 표시하여 사용자가 정상 착용을 실시할 수 있게 한다.This is a characteristic part that has a big difference from the prior art by using a smartphone. Assuming that the effective recognition range of the pressure sensor is set to 100 to 200 pascals when pressurized for correction, if distortion occurs during wear, etc. 100 When a value below Pascal is measured and reported to the smartphone, it displays a poor wearing so that the user can perform normal wearing.
또한, 이러한 경우 사용자는 의사의 도움이 없더라도 항상 자신의 가압 정보를 스마트폰으로 인지할 수 있으므로 스마트폰을 보면서 정상적인 착용을 시도할 수 있게 된다.In addition, in this case, the user can always recognize his pressure information with a smartphone even without the help of a doctor, so that the user can try to wear normally while watching the smartphone.
